Jordan Vineyard & Winery

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

This beautiful 2005 cab was an anniversary gift from a great friend of mine @Jeff Savigny The vintage is the year we got married. The nose is so complex and yet so subdued, it practically blew my mind. A nose full of roses, tobacco, dark fruit and licorice with a hint of molasses and vanilla. On the palate very dry, with a faint aged acidity, yet very rich and delicious. You can spend just as much time smelling this as drinking it. This was a near perfect wine and a great anniversary present! — 12 years ago

The Prisoner Napa Valley Zinfandel Blend

2011- gift from a friend. Excellent structure, tannins are very mellow but alcohol is still very hot. Fruit forward, possibly oxidized fruit (port-like fruit). — 12 years ago

Caymus Vineyards

40th Anniversary Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Lots of fruit as expected and a sweet streak in middle. Pretty good but a certain Belgian friend of mine might call it a fruit bomb — 12 years ago

Opus One

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1999

NYE 2014 pre-dinner appetizer w my lovely wife! Amazingly youthful and balanced with no signs of aging aside from how smoothly it goes down the hatch! My 1st Opus ever from a friend in OKC. — 12 years ago

Bodegas y Viñedos Vega Sicilia

Unico Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend 1989

A delicious '89 for my friend on her 25th! Fragrant nose of dark cherries, licorice and floral notes. A full bodied, amazingly textured and elegant wine with impeccable concentration. Spice, burnt oak, black currant, cedar and earth. Such a fresh, vivacious 20 something. — 12 years ago

I'd say No. 3. My favorite was the '81 but I had an Especial bottling combining the '91, '94 and '95 a few years ago. It was spectacular. It never disappoints. It went perfectly with dry aged NY at Stake restaurant in Coronado....which I highly recommend btw.
